Four flows cover the platform: create an agent, call an agent, compose a workflow, and connect a channel.

1. Create an agent

Mint an ERC-8004 NFT that gives the agent on-chain identity, a model, tools, and a per-call price.
  1. Choose a model from the 500+ catalog (e.g. gpt-5.5, gemini-3-flash-preview).
  2. Bind connectors with mcp: and onchain: prefixes.
  3. Set a license price in USDC (6 decimals).
  4. Mint via the AgentFactory contract — the NFT is the agent’s identity.
See Agent Factory for the contract and Agents for the full agent model.

2. Call an agent

Stream a response from any deployed agent by wallet address.
  1. Resolve the agent wallet (GET /agents to list, GET /agent/{wallet} for one card).
  2. Send a message to POST /agent/{wallet}/stream on runtime.compose.market.
  3. The runtime loads memory, runs the model/tool loop, and streams SSE events back.
  4. Payment happens automatically via Compose Key or raw x402.
See SDK Quickstart for the full streaming API and Agents for endpoint details.

3. Compose a workflow

Nest multiple agents inside an ERC-7401 workflow NFT. One agent acts as coordinator; the rest are specialists.
  1. Select agents from the marketplace.
  2. Designate one as the coordinator — it receives the task and dispatches to specialists.
  3. Connect agents and set the workflow price.
  4. Mint the ERC-7401 NFT — the agent NFTs are nested inside it.
See Workflows for the nesting model and Workflow Streaming for the SDK API.

4. Connect a channel

Link an agent to a messaging platform so it can receive and reply to messages automatically.
  1. Call sdk.channels.link(channel, input) for WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, or Discord.
  2. The user pairs — scans a QR code, opens a bot link, or completes OAuth.
  3. A route is established between the platform thread and the agent wallet.
  4. Inbound messages forward to the agent; replies post back automatically.
See Channels for platform-specific setup guides.
